George Clooney was a little overserved at a St. Louis bar last weekend.

In town filming “Up in the Air,” the Oscar-winner made his way to Sub Zero Vodka Bar, where patrons got a good view of him “definitely stumbling.” Says our eyewitness: “He was attempting to make his way down the block to his hotel, but was having a hard time getting there.”

Last night George Clooney, 47 declared he has wanted to be adopted for a long time according to People.

“I always wanted to be adopted, but I couldn’t find anyone,” said the star, speaking at a Newseum event in Washington, D.C., with his father, former Ohio news anchor Nick Clooney, and veteran journalist Bill Small on either side of him.”Will you adopt me?” George said to Small. “I’m very wealthy. I’ll take care of you.”

George I will adopt you, even though I am young enough to be your daughter!!!

Apparently, George Clooney may have figured out there’s no girlfriend like an old girlfriend. The bedroom-eyed Oscar winner has quietly circled back to Krista Allen, friends tell us.

Their on-and-off long-running romance began in 2002 when George cast Krista in “Confessions of a Dangerous Mind.” (This was after his marriage to Talia Balsam and linkages with Kelly Preston, Celine Balitran, Charlize Theron, Renee Zellweger, Jennifer Lynn Siebel and Mariella Frostrup. But who’s counting?)
George and Krista dated for close to two years, till Allen broke it off in March 2004. He moved on to model Lisa Snowden, but then he and Krista tried again in 2006. After that, he dated Sarah Larson, cocktail waitress and “Fear Factor” winner, for most of a year.

Throughout, says a friend, “Krista has always been there for him. She admits she just can’t get over him.”
And something about Krista brings him back. “George really loves her,” says the source.

A relationship with Krista, 37, would mean a ready-made family for George, 47, who once vowed that he wouldn’t remarry or have children by the time he was 50. Krista has an 11-year-old son, Jake, with production manager Justin Moritt.

But it may not be an issue. Says the source, “George adores Krista’s son.”

Reps for the two declined to comment.

Meanwhile, George has been shooting in Puerto Rico, where Hurricane Omar slowed down production of “The Men Who Stare at Goats.” He plays a former member of the U.S. Army’s First Earth Battalion, a unit that employs paranormal powers in their missions. Next up for the actor is “Up in the Air,” in which he plays a “career transition counselor” who’s looking to accumulate 1 million frequent flier miles and land a job at a mysterious management company called MythTech.

Friends and co-stars of comedian Bernie Mac are speaking out following his Saturday morning death.

“The world just got a little less funny,” Ocean’s 13 co-star, George Clooney, said in a statement to Entertainment Tonight. “He will be dearly missed.”

Adds Ocean’s co-star Brad Pitt, in a statement to E!: “I lament the loss of a ferociously funny and hardcore family man. My thoughts are with [his wife], Rhonda, and their family. Bernie Mac, you are already missed.”

Mac, 50, passed away due to pneumonia complications early Saturday morning in a Chicago-area hospital, his rep confirmed to Usmagazine.com. He had been admitted to the hospital August 1, but was expected to make a full recovery after a few weeks of treatment.

“Bernie Mac was one of the best and funniest comedians to ever live, but that was the second best thing he did,” says Chris Rock, who worked with Mac in animated flick, Return to Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa. “Bernie was one of the greatest friends a person could have.

“Losing him is like losing 12 people, because he absolutely filled up any room he was in,” Rock continues. “I’m gonna’ miss the Mac Man.”

Ocean’s Don Cheadle also tells E! in a statement: “This is a very sad day for many of us who knew and loved Bernie. He brought so much joy to so many. He will be missed, but heaven just got funnier.”

Cedric the Entertainer, who appeared with Mac on the Grammy-nominated album, “The Original Kings of Comedy,” in 2001, says: “It’s hard to put into words just how I feel and what a painful loss this is. Bernie was a brother, a friend and one of the comic masters of our time. Sharing the marquee with him during the phenomenon of the ‘Kings of Comedy’ tour bonded us like family, and created a unique moment in comic history, marking some of the most meaningful, memorable and fun times of our lives. His comedic approach was his own brand and will definitely stand the test of time. The level of his talent always inspired me, and other comedians, to ‘bring their A-game.’ I promise you that you never wanted to be the guy who had to follow Bernie’s set! As a husband and father, he was THE MAN and my thoughts and prayers are with his family. He will truly be missed, but so well remembered.”

Earlier Saturday, former co-star Niecy Nash told Us, “His passing is such a major loss to the acting and comedy communities.

“Bernie Mac was the personification of the word ‘real.’ He kept it real,” she said. “That kind of genuine spirit that he carried all time cannot be easily duplicated, but I will do my very best to try.”

The FOX network, which aired The Bernie Mac Show from 2001 to 2006, told Us in a statement, “Bernie Mac was a gifted talent whose comment came from an authentic, and highly personal, place. He was a tremendous live performer, and a wonderful actor. FOX was proud to be the home of The Bernie Mac Show, and all of us at FOX and 20th Century FOX Television extend our deepest sympathies to his wife, Rhonda, and daughter, Je’Niece.”

Hollywood star George Clooney is still very good friends with his ex-girlfriend Sarah Larson even after two months after they ended their year-long relationship. In her first published interview since the split, Larson insists she has no regrets about the year long romance, and reveals the couple still talks and she misses his great sense of humor. The former cocktail waitress tells British magazine Hello, “George is a great guy, a wonderful person.”I don’t regret spending time with him. We still remain friends and have kept in touch. In fact, we spoke over the phone a couple of days ago.”Most people know George has a great sense of humor and is an adept storyteller. But I will always love his extraordinary dance moves.”
